Breathtaking alpine sceneries with giant caves, age-old seaside towns resembling neighboring Italy, and a part of the Pannonian Great Plains, all in an area smaller than that of Sicily. Slovenia, one of the smallest of the European countries, is probably the most varied of them all.
The IZLETka Ticket: Unlimited rail travel in Slovenia on weekends and public holidays
You can do a round-trip of Slovenia at a fraction of the cost of the Interrail pass: by buying an IZLETka ticket for unlimited rail travel across Slovenia. The catch is: it is only valid on weekends and public holidays. However, if you can schedule your trip at such a time, you can travel all around Slovenia for an unbeatable price of 15 EUR (7.5 EUR for children aged 6-12).
This list of public holidays in Slovenia might come in handy for your planning.
The IZLETka ticket is valid for 5 days – however, this does not mean 5 continuous days, it just means all weekends and public holidays within an 5-day period. Thus, if you buy it starting from a Saturday, and Wednesday is a public holiday, you just pay 15 EUR for unlimited rail travel all across Slovenia on Saturday, Sunday and Wednesday (however, not on Monday and Tuesday!).
